I used to read these books all the time as a kid. I even introduced them to a younger friend of mine who was about 8-9 who then insisted on being called George and wanted to cut her hair short. She turned out not to be trans but I think the books let both me and her play with our gender expressions a little in a time where that wasn't really The Thing (this was the early to mid 90s).

I think it is so important to have the opportunity for gender swap play, it is part of how we learn to understand gender. Millions of children read about George and role played as the famous five, many played with gender and a few saw their own gender expressed in George and felt seen.

Idk I feel like this is misleading, when I think of a trans person, I think of pronouns and stuff. When I was a kid I wished I was a boy, and I knew girls who wished they were boys, and would pretend they were sometimes. That, in my mind, never had anything to do with trans people. I had tomboy friends and I’m sure I also knew boys who would dress like girls, that was just life. From my conservative / transphobe friends, this is completely different. What they usually have a problem with is pronouns and accepting a reality that they do not want to take part in. This is where the issue lies.

Interesting comment, Transphobes also have a problem with using a gender switched name. In the books, George never directly asks for male pronouns, but every time someone assumes they are a boy it is commented on how much it delights them.

Yes, Enid Blyton’s books lost popularity in the eighties and nineties because writers like Jaqueline Wilson etc were writing low effort high engagement books that reflected children’s lives of the time. But in the late seventies and early eighties I was devouring them from the library. The book in the video is one I bought from a jumble sale in 1986 (I wrote the date in it!).

I recently finished re-reading the famous five series (it was one of my favourites as a child) and I never believed that George was trans. She was a tomboy, plain and simple. I was a tomboy like her at that age but I was never trans. I think Blyton was trying to represent the social struggle and injustice of being a girl in the 1940’s, and the expectation of conforming to your gender role. I think George hated that expectation and she yearned for the same freedoms as boys did her in her era, hence she was a tomboy. Also, the whole trans topic was taboo back in the 40’s, so I’m certain that Blyton would never of written a trans character in a children’s series that is now known for its sexism, racism and classism.
@sunnyquinn3888

One reason why tomboys have always been more accepted in society than femboys is misogyny. People could readily understand a girl wanting to be a boy because deep down everyone knew that females were subjected to worse treatment than males on almost every level. It's like how everyone can understand a poor person wanting to be rich.
@youareherediversity7321
@youareherediversity7321 Ай бұрын
Interesting view, but I think many trans boys would see their experience reflected in George. I doubt whether Blyton framed it like that in her mind- but I think George reads as very determined that they are as much of a boy as society allowed.

Crazy that people confuse media visibility of a topic with the actual percentage that are actually affected. Just because a society is engaged in fighting for the acceptance of trans people it doesn't mean we are all now getting trans. It's just such a small percentage. Conservatives confuse the broad media attention against discrimination with the actual numbers and the real reasons why people talk about it, which is discrimination of a minority.

George was definitely gender non-conforming. She was a fictional character, so we can only look to the authors probable intention. The best way to do that it to imagine a conversation with Enid Blyton or to research whether there are any such interviews in existence. George was what was at the time known as a tomboy. I identified with her completely as a child. My name is Joanna, but I was always Joe. If I met kids who didn't know me, I used he/ him pronouns because I wanted them to think of me as a boy. My last wish/prayer before sleep at night was that I would be a physical boy when I woke up, and my first thought on waking was the awful realisation that I was not. These very few characters in fiction( try Swallows and Amazons)were like a lifeline to me and all the gender non-conforming girls who read them. It wasn't easy. My behaviour was mostly seen as 'bad behaviour','acting out' etc and I and others like me faced daily hostility from adults and children alike. Gender non- conforming boys got a much worse deal. Trans kids are trans. Trans kids are gender non-conforming, but not all gender non- conforming kids are trans. I'm a 63 year old gender non-conforming lesbian and happy to be a woman. Many straight cis women were also empowered by these characters who took them away from the strict gender roles of the times. Can we agree to share the joy of these characters rather than appropriate them to any particular cause?

@@joannasnee3871 I love your response! It sounds like you have had an interesting gender journey, I totally agree- both trans and gender non conforming kids had gender non-conforming characters to help them make sense of life. I think George was probably the most extreme of the time, I must look back into swallows and amazons- I loved them, especially that one of the Amazons changed their name because pirates had to be Ruth-less. It is interesting to look at older fiction and see that kids have always explored gender and that there have always been gender non-conforming kids all across the spectrum. Thank you for your comment!

The other kids even laughed at the notion that a girl could be a boy, and insisted the 'boy' was a girl that Georgina agreed with. Georgina's maybe on the tomboyish side, but clearly a girl. Thoughts like 'she wished she was a boy' would have been grown out of, children think dumb things all the time. It's the age old joke of giving your kid a leg amputation because he said he's a pirate, and therefore needs a peg leg.

George is not just a tom boy. Tom boys are girls that like things that are coded boy, like boyish clothes maybe. George changes their name, gets excited whenever anyone thinks they are a boy and never claims to be a girl. They are persistent and insistent that the wish they were a boy and that they want to be seen as a boy. Throughout the books they are very clear that they want to be seen as a boy. And no one calls George ‘Georgina’.

Definition of grooming from the Met Police ‘Grooming is when a person builds a relationship with a child, young person or an adult who's at risk so they can abuse them and manipulate them into doing things.’ This is a video aimed at adults showing a book from 1949 featuring a character who shows clear signs of gender dysphoria.

I am not sure where you live or if there are political differences in different areas, but in the UK generally Down syndrome is the preferred term as some argue that trisomy 21 does not belong to Down, but is named after him. I am not sure of the source of this, I would need to look back through my research, but Down syndrome is the preferred terminology of families I work with.

@@youareherediversity7321 Hello - Thank you for that. However, as far as dialectical variation goes, it would most certainly have to be standardised for international usage in order to avoid confusion with something else. Interesting nevertheless, but clearly as a result of vernacular usage due to illiteracy. Blessings - RevDrD

It is similar with a number of syndromes, Usher Syndrome is also referred to as Ushers syndrome (I have no idea why it is usually with no apostrophe). For one child with a very rare genetic difference I found her condition named 3 different ways in her medical paperwork, I thought someone had made a mistake, but when I looked it up they are all names for the same genetic difference!
